12.1 We will use all reasonable endeavours to provide to you the mode of transport or services the subject of the Booking but, in circumstances beyond our control, we may without notice substitute other means of transport or service. These Conditions apply to any such substituted transport or services and, subject to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law and other applicable Laws referred to in paragraph 2.4, we will not be liable for any Loss you may incur as a result of any such substitution. In addition, we operate a number of different aircraft types with unique equipment, interior layout and service offerings and do not guarantee that you will travel on a particular aircraft type or will be able to utilise in-flight entertainment systems.

12.2 If you are landed at a destination other than that specified in the Booking, we will make all reasonable endeavours to take you to the specified destination but we do not have any obligation to you in relation to the time this will take nor the means of transport that will be used.

12.3 When you make a Booking, we or an Authorised Agent will tell you the scheduled time of your flights. These times will also be noted on your Itinerary and may be noted on your Ticket. If we change the time of your flight, we will make reasonable attempts to contact you or your Authorised Agent, using the contact details you have provided us. We do not guarantee that we will contact you, and so you should check prior to your flight to make sure your flight times have not changed.

12.4 We will try to ensure that you and your Baggage depart and arrive as close as possible to the scheduled times. However, we do not guarantee flight times or schedules, and they do not form part of your contract of carriage.

We are not liable for any Loss which you may incur as a result of any such delayed or rescheduled flight or service, except as provided for under the Australian Consumer Law, other applicable Laws or Conventions or in accordance with our Policies.

13. Connecting Flights

13.1 We may offer two or more flight sectors for sale as a scheduled connection ("Connecting Flight"). Subject to paragraph 11.1, in the event that a Connecting Flight fails to connect, we will use reasonable measures to enable you to travel on our next available flight to the destination at which you were due to arrive on the Connecting Flight. However, we do not provide any guarantee whatsoever that any two or more single sector flights (which are not offered for sale as Connecting Flights) will connect (even though you may book such single sector flights with the intention of those flights connecting).

13.2 Subject to these Conditions, your rights under the Australian Consumer Law and any other applicable Laws, we are not liable for or in connection with any Loss which you may incur as a result of any such single sector Booked flights failing to connect.

13.3 Other than for Connecting Flights, we do not offer, provide or guarantee connections between the flights we offer and the flights of another carrier or any other form of transport, and subject to the provisions of these Conditions, your rights under the Australian Consumer Law and any other applicable Laws, we are not liable for or in connection with any Loss which you may incur as a result of any such flight failing to connect with the flight of another carrier or another form of transport.

14.3 If you are refused carriage due to your conduct – International Long Haul only

If you are refused carriage as a result of one or more of the matters referred to in paragraph 14.2, we will provide you with a written notice of refusal of carriage. The notice may specify that you are refused carriage only for your ticketed flight, or it may specify a period of time during which we will not carry you. You must not travel or attempt to travel with us when the notice is in force. We reserves the right to cancel any Booking you make to travel on a Virgin Australia service when the notice is in force, and to refuse to provide you with a refund.

14.4 Refusal of carriage due to overbooking – International Long Haul flights to and from the US only

(a) We may overbook flights to account for guests who do not arrive for their ticketed flight. If you are refused carriage because your flight has been overbooked, and you hold a valid Ticket and have complied with these Conditions in relation to Bookings, ticketing and check-in, then you may be entitled to compensation.

(b) The compensation payable will:

i. depend on the difference in time between when you were scheduled to arrive at your destination and when you actually arrive; and

ii. be in accordance with applicable Laws and in accordance with our Policies.

14.5 Refusal of Carriage due to Overbooking – Domestic and International Short Haul

If you are refused carriage because your flight has been overbooked, you may be entitled to compensation in accordance with our Guest Compensation Policy and any applicable Laws, including the Australian Consumer Law.

This Annexure only applies to passengers travelling from the UK or a European Union country.

This notice is required by European Community Regulation (EC) No. 2027/97 as amended by EC No. 889/2002. This notice cannot be used as a basis for a claim for compensation, nor to interpret the provisions of the Regulation or the Montreal or Warsaw Conventions.

Air Carrier Liability for Passengers and Their Baggage

This information notice summarises the liability rules applied by Virgin Australia in respect of international carriage.

Compensation in the Case of Death or Injury

There are no financial limits to our liability for passenger injury or death. For recoverable compensatory damages up to 113,100 SDRs (approximately EUR127,200) in respect of death or bodily injury caused by an accident on board the aircraft or during embarking or disembarking, we will not exclude or limit our liability, except where there is contributory negligence on the part of the passenger. Above that amount, we can defend ourselves against a claim by proving that:

where the Warsaw Convention applies, we took all necessary measures to avoid the damage or that it was impossible for us to take such measures;

where the Montreal Convention applies, we were not negligent or otherwise at fault.

Passenger Delays

In the case of passenger delay:

where the Warsaw Convention applies, we will be liable for damage except when we can prove that we took all necessary measures to avoid the damage or that it was impossible for us to take such measures;

where the Montreal Convention applies, we will be liable for damage except when we can prove that we took all measures that could reasonably be required to avoid the damage or that it was impossible for us to take such measures. Our liability under the Montreal Convention is limited to 4,694 SDRs (approximately EUR5,281). Baggage Destruction, Loss, Damage or Delay

Our liability for the destruction, Loss of, damage to or delay in the carriage of baggage, subject to applicable defences, is as follows:

where the Warsaw Convention applies, our liability is limited to 17 SDRs (approximately EUR20) for each kilo of a passenger's checked baggage and 332 SDRs (approximately EUR380) for a passenger's cabin baggage;

where the Montreal Convention applies, our liability is limited to a total of 1,131 SDRs (approximately EUR1,272) per passenger for both checked and cabin baggage together. However, in the case of unchecked baggage, we are only liable if at fault.

Complaints on Baggage

If the baggage is damaged, delayed, lost or destroyed, the passenger must write and complain to us as soon as possible, but in any event, in the case of damage to checked baggage, it must be within 7 days, and in the case of delay, it must be within 21 days, from the date on which the baggage was placed at the passenger's disposal.

Liability of Contracting and Actual Carriers

If the air carrier actually performing the flight is not the same as the contracting air carrier, the passenger has the right to address a complaint or to make a claim for damages against either. If the name or code of an air carrier is indicated on the ticket for a particular flight, that air carrier is the contracting air carrier for that flight.

Time Limit for Action

Any action in court to claim damages must be brought within 2 years from the date of arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived
